RISDevelopment of Inelastic Panel Zone Database
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This data paper reviews the experimental research on fully restrained beam-to-column connections for steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) over the last 50 years worldwide and presents an experimental database consisting ...
Proposed Backing Bar Detail in Welded Beam-to-Column Connections for Seismic Applications
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The use of prequalified welded unreinforced flange-welded web (WUF-W) beam-to-column connections in capacity-designed steel moment-resisting frames necessitates the removal of the weld backing bar at the bottom beam ...
Full-Scale Experiments of Cyclically Loaded Welded Moment Connections with Highly Dissipative Panel Zones and Simplified Weld Details
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents the experimental results of two welded unreinforced flange-welded web (WUF-W) beam-to-column connections that defy the current design paradigm of prequalified welded connections. The proposed WUF-W ...
Proposed Panel Zone Model for Seismic Design of Steel Moment-Resisting Frames
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper proposes a new mechanics-based model for the seismic design of beam-to-column panel zone joints in steel moment-resisting frames. The model is based on realistic shear stress distributions retrieved from continuum ...
